Hi All,
I have 2 EG4 6500 Inverters and only 1 (for right now) EG4 LifePower4 battery.
In setting 2, maximum battery charge rate, the inverters automatically reset this setting to not exceed 50 AMPs between the 2 of them. So, inverter 1 sometimes resets this setting to 20 AMPs while inverter 2 resets to 30 AMPS. Sometimes those AMPs flip around.
The manual for the LifePower4 says the maximum charge current is 100AMP constant.
Additionally, I have 4,500 Watts of solar, since I only have 1 battery, the inverters will curtail my solar down to around 2,000 watts to only charge the battery at 50AMPs (when there is no load on the inverters, when there is a load, the inverters allow more solar through so I know my panels are producing more than the battery is using).
Finally, my battery settings are to "EG4" on Inverter 1 (SP1) and "Use" on Inverter 2 (SP2).
Any ideas or suggestions on what to do here? I'm not getting maximum power input, or output, on my battery.
Thanks,
Bob
